Amazing talkers, maybe. But football players? Milch pls.

I never said that they were amazing football players.

Although I honestly think that Kevin Großkreutz is one of the most underrated players in current football. People always say he's kinda terrible with the ball, sure, he's no Isco or something, but still good. But then there's his amazing football intelligence. He can easily cover all the positions on the wing both in attack and defense + central midfield and actually play well. I also think he could fill the remaining positions outside the goal (striker and CB) as well. Every club that doesn't shit money and can't fill every position in the squad with at least 2 players would be happy to have him.

Sounds better ;)
Yeah, he is versatile and any club could be happy to have a guy like him. Posolski on the other hand... I have yet to see a good game of him against a decent opposition.

it's incredible to see Podolski still being called up for his national team, considering the amount of talented german wingers.

Oh Vida :(

I'd like to remember him as the defender he used to be rather than the shambling husk that turns out for us these days.

Löw has a weakness for him. I remember him saying that Podolski was there when he counted on him. The question was, why Podolski is nominated in the first place because his performances were underwhelming and why Löw was blocking the way for much more talented wingers. I hope Löw quits after WC. There are too many Löw/Klinsmann instalments inside the whole team.
 
When he starts playing in the middle IMO.

And when he gets fitness, dude needs a month off.

That means next year, basically. Clarence will keep trying and trying, can't see him letting Honda rest for a whole month. Or maybe when El Shaa is back, then again we probably won't see him until April.

Podolski is just a few years too young, he'd have been (and actually was) amazing as second striker in a 4-4-2. The problem is that he's just neither a single striker nor a proper winger and his position pretty much ceased at European top clubs. He should go to Juve, he'd fit there.

:(

Probably. Got a granpa and Gomez as striker, two of the best three DMs injured, a fading Özil and problems on the LB and RB positions if Lahm has to play as DM. Should be happy to survive the group.

Bullshit, man. Midfield is still great and Großkreutz and Schmelzer as fullbacks is still good. Spain is fielding fucking Arbeloa.

Echo saying Gerrard, Johnson, Sturridge, Sterling and Henderson are all starting tonight.

What do we reckon the odds are that Roy is trying to make a carbon copy of our 4-3-3? The results will be hillarious.

Well now that you have an Inter player in your ranks, I hope you finish as low as possible.

his position pretty much ceased at European top clubs. He should go to Juve, he'd fit there.
maybe he should go to your team because you're running out of quality players.

and he already played for Bayern so no worries there

It was fine. So is the hair and make up. You're just too picky as usual, like with your football styles and your choice of porn.

We don't need another winger to be honest. But like I said, Juve is pretty much the only Europa league quality team left that plays with two strikers.

I think winning the title guarantees CL football.

the season is long baby, you might still finish 5th. And even if you don't, you will without Lewy next season.

The Podolskis and the leftovers of this world are for you now

your project is dead

So long as they don't bother to actually listen to Hodgson and pretend it's a training match against Agger they'll do fine.

Villa have signed a Swedish U-15 international attacking midfielder. Supposedly highly rated with Ajax and Benfica chasing him too. He'll be going straight into our U-19 squad, which is pretty impressive.

After losing Dan Crowley for pennies earlier in the year, nice to see us restocking on talent.
